There is a dedicated 35t crawler motor by Tamiya but its not the silvercan. The silvercan is more like 27t

to the OP: You should hit up some crawler specific vendors and check the motors there. TCScrawlers.com, holmeshobbies.com, rpphobby.com, etc all have stuff for crawlers

Novak 55T motor is very popular, available from Tower as a combo with the Rooster ESC for about $110.
